As a coach, I would encourage the group to set norms before we start the session, including:
-Cell phone use
-Confidentiality
-Respect to others
If I observe behavior that may be disturbing to others, questions I would ask include:
-What is the group observing?
-How are we working together as a group?
-What are you noticing about the contribution of our members?
I will then bring it back to the group and ask what they would like to do.

I try to ask some clarifying questions to remind the team members of their goal, objectives and challenges in the action-learning process. I also give the floor to the presenter to re-explain the essence of the problem from his or her perspective again to help team keep themselves on the right track. Another option is to ask the problem presenter to make his or her definition and write it down on the board to keep team members focused.

I would intervene and ask the team what is happening here? Does the team has an agreement on the problem presented? Do we need more time to ask more questions to the problem presenter?
This would bring the focus back to the problem for the team to proceed
